About

Dr. Antonio Cosma is a leading voice in sustainable logistics and Industry 4.0, whose research bridges the gap between cutting-edge automation and environmental responsibility. His most-cited work, "Sustainability Impact of Automated Warehouses in Industry 4.0 scenario" (2025, 9 citations), critically examines how the drive for competitiveness through technological advancement must be balanced with ecological imperatives. Cosma argues that in-house logistics, often overshadowed by production, is equally vital in the modern industrial landscape. By analyzing the sustainability footprint of automated warehouses, he provides a framework for companies to adopt Industry 4.0 innovations—such as robotics and IoT—without compromising environmental goals. His contributions are particularly notable for challenging the assumption that automation inherently leads to sustainability, instead offering data-driven insights into energy consumption, waste reduction, and lifecycle impacts. With a growing citation footprint, Cosma’s work is essential reading for researchers and practitioners seeking to align operational efficiency with the green transition. His research not only advances academic discourse but also offers actionable guidance for industries navigating the complex interplay of competitiveness, technology, and sustainability.
